Scout (comic book)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Scout is a comic book series starting in 1987 by American writer, artist and musician Timothy Truman starring a Native American Apache named Emanuel Santana. The setting of the series was a chaotic, post-apocalyptic United States. It was published by Eclipse Comics. 24 issues were published.

After the series ended, a short comic featuring Santana's marriage ceremony was published inside Timothy Truman's first album release entitled Marauder by his band The Dixie Pistols.

Two brief mini-series were published that 'bridged the gap' between the two Scout series: New America and Swords of Texas, each 4 issues long. While Truman oversaw them, others wrote and drew them. A one-shot Scout Handbook was also published.

A new series entitled Scout: War Shaman continued Santana's adventures after having two children and being widowed. The series ended with isseu #16, after Scout is killed. Further series were planned, Scout: Marauder and Scout: Blue Leader, but they have never appeared.
